[voice] A stormy question

[justicereigns]

[Hello Luceti, is the nice little ice storm distracting you from post-Valentine's woes? Don't worry, here's a grumpy marine asking questions to painfully reminds you all.]

Seeing as we're all stuck inside -- [Once again, an usually feminine voice from Smoker's journal account.] -- I've got a question for everyone affected by the event.

Are there normally lines you won't cross in relationships that the Malnosso seem to cross for you? Or do they seem to take those into consideration instead? Since they seem to know us pretty well, it begs the question whether they're using our weaknesses, or if it's completely random.

And if anyone needs help out there in the storm, let me know. This weather is good practice.

[ooc: and feel free to threadjump like the dickens. It might be the only time Smoker keeps quieter than not, seeing as he's a girl now.]

[ooc: No problem!]

Wait... so if he impersonates, how would he make the plants like him?

[weaponry]

I'm not sure. Anyone he touches he just turns into. Apparently he can't use the techniques of the person he's impersonating or fight decently in them, so it's just a diversion tactic.

He doesn't transform into a plant. He's made of plant, but he's also part human. It's odd and something I can't explain well.

[justicereigns]

Wait so... are they all like that? All the plant humans?

[weaponry]

Yep. They're all like that. No difference in composition.

[justicereigns]

That's definitely weird, even by my world's definitions. So I guess he could make a whole bunch of duplicates of himself.

In my world a crazy scientist was trying to do that with machinery.

[weaponry]

We're not sure how he got to make thousands of clones with himself, though, I think he can use a technique to do it. What's odd about it, is, when you defeat a clone they normally disperse. His actually die.

Hm. Tell me more, if you can. [ She is inquisitive about everything. You just don't tease her with just that! ]

[justicereigns]

That is bizarre.

I don't know that much. [A) it's new for his time period, ask when he's updated and B) it's a little confidential and C) he's not a crazy scientist.] Vegapunk does a lot of strange things with devil fruits and seastone, I suppose it was only natural that he would start working on people. So far as I can tell, he modified a -- someone to start turning them into a robot and then made several weaker copied versions of the robots. They're meant to round up pirates, and he used them in the War of Marineford.

[weaponry]

Robots? [ Vegapunk? That definitely is a weird as hell name. ] I'm not sure what Devil fruits and seastone do, but turning people into a robot? [ Stripping them of free will? ] Did they consent to this? [ She definitely sounds a bit horrified, but mostly annoyed. ]

[justicereigns]

One person, and then he copied the design for them.

Strangely, yes. I will never understand pirates.
